Adult Bible Class -- Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

Beginning this Sunday, October 25, we are starting a new series for Adult Bible Class.  We are focusing on the Patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 

Our attention will be how God's promise of a Savior was proclaimed and worked through these men of faith.  We will recognize their faith and their flaws, but especially God's grace.  The class will follow this tentative schedule.  

Classes are Sundays at 8:45 AM.
